Android development for the Optimus 2x

This is another placeholder!

Any developer getting this Tegra2 monster?
IMO Optimus 2X NEEDS good AOSP or CM support!

thanks!!! you're doing really a great job, your team makes it worth continuing to support xda and provide a place where users can find their custom roms and Q's get answered...
Market is big and some section might suffer from less success, but i think this one will make it some of the way..

LG optimus 2x and sense
Any chance of a "sense" ROM on this bad boy once it releases?

You can count on seeing so many UI's on this baby, devs will have a blast pushing the 2x to the limit.

will MIUI be suported?

not really.. SenseUI with its libraries are on a NEON cpu based platform, so its highly unlikely that it will be ported, unless HTC start using a non-NEON base CPU so it becomes compatible..

Is it possible to develop a stock android build for this phone that uses the two cores?

Lower res screen doesn't do justice for this phone. Hope CM7 will be ported tho'. It needs Ginger

Hummingbird is a non-NEON base and Sense reached alpha on Samsung Galaxy S.

but Sense is NEON based with its functionality?
so how would that make it run on a non-NEON based system, hummingbird is not part of the equation anyways..

Can't wait to see how this transpires. I am looking at getting the Optimus 2x when it hits Tmobile in March. If it does....

do we know if LG will lock the bootloader or restrict any custom roms like motorola does?

The new LS670ZVC upgrade that went out OTA effectively quashed my hope of a quick root. With any luck, someone will be able to develop a procedure soon.

Wink HI!
I was wondering if someone can build a MIUI ROM for the LG Optimus 2x aka. STAR
And it been nice if we get the full flash on this mobile.
The all new drivers from Optimus 3D that works with 2x if it possible.
I had a Htc HD2 before my LG STAR and it cames updates every day taken from another phones.
Fun phone as hell but the hardware is no longer enough
Sorry for my english. I hope you guys anderstand what I mean!

MIUI roms require a NEON ARMv7 compatible cpu, tegra2 is not :-(
so until a japanese dude will compile the miui rom from bottom (which i doubt as it made for desire), this type of rom will not appear.. same goes with htc sense roms.

I haven't got any update on mine, probably because it is Global right? In my Software Update section the "Next check for Updates" is set to April 1st, 2011 so I guess that is the date for LG's official Gingerbread launch. Also if I try to check for updates manually it says it can't find the server...so it is not even up yet

LG optimus 2x Gingerbread Update predictions

Let us all combine all our knowledge on when the Gingerbread update will come for the Optimus 2x in this forum Hopefully we can comeout with a slightly accurate prediction date
For me, what I can predict is, since all the other Tegra 2 devices out there in the market have not received any gingerbread update and when I went to the tegra website, there were no mentions on gingerbread at all. My guess is that nvidia has to come out with the Gingerbread kernel for LG to complete the Gingerbread update, thats what probably causing the delay although LG has already completed the new LG UI experience. So all we have to wait is for Nvidia actually Not just LG

I have a hunch, Nvidia might be skipping Gingerbread and continue with their kal el project instead. it is quite likely that we will receive the ice cream update

2. LG Gingerbread ROM not ready
3. applies Swedish carriers only

Also there is 2.6.36 source for Tegra2, nVidia aren't ignoring anything.

Hmmm then the only problem LG is well known for is instability issues like our current froyo rom, my guess is their trying to make sure the update for us has at least a 95% chance of not receiving any bugs

i still can't understand why it is taking so long, whileas cm developers give us daily updates

Optimus One spotted with official gingerbread. Which shows LG HQ is doing there job!
Also Source Code v10C rom has been released.

What? LG doing quality-testing?

It's time to have a full-working ICS' Rom for our O2x?

Look here! http://developer.nvidia.com/linux-tegra What do you think? Video Encoding/decoding and H/w bugs can now solved? ???

As a lot of developers said, this is for linux, not for android so it's useless

Oh my God... please use the search button! Please! This is not for android, but for Linux! If you read the date of publishing you can understand that it is impossible that our developers don't know it, and do not open a new thread for this in developement section!
There is an identical topic in general created today...

At this moment, none of the three handsets with Tegra 2 (LG P990/P999/SU660, Motorola ME860/MB860, Samsung GT-I9103) have official ICS ROMs.
At the same time, these 3 manufacturers have rolled out ICS updates for other devices, so it's not like they don't know how to work with ICS.
Feel free to draw your own conclusions on who should be blamed for this frustrating situation of our devices. I know, though, who NOT to buy from again (hint: it's not LG).
And before someone say T2 tablets getting ICS, tablets != phones. I don't think any T2 tablets even have a 3G radio, so the chip can be of a completely different SKU and hence incompatible binaries.

Why ?
Nvidia probably gave the sources to lg (and other companies) before the public ics release
It is not up to nvidia to update the device to ICS it is up to lg but they are busier with newer phones
You would do the same if you were owner of lg it is about making money not about supporting old devices
Priority 1 new phones
Priority 2 software updates for the new phones
Priority 3 support for old phones
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

nah I just like your general attitude towards building ROMS for this phone! its great to have a good community right?
I agree though with your logic...its just a truth that I choose not to accept since I did buy this phone nay a year ago for a hefty sum of money. I just want LG to give you guys the sources so we can all have fun and leave them alone (and get me that ICS fun)

Yeah I don't know why LG don't just "leak" the ics testing rom for O2X which I'm sure does exist in the deepest realm of LG.
That way it would get us lot of their back, they could concentrate on the newer phones, and nobody would care about the official release of ICS for O2X anymore

As someone who has had several LG phones I can safely say that once they have released a phone LG tends to stop giving a crap about it.

I think it's not in the LG itself, because no one with a Tegra 2 is not received ICS. Samsung has updated all the models, but it has not updated the model Galaxy R, but we know how well does the Samsung firmware! I think there is some sort of a different problem!
Nvidia probably gave the sources to lg (and other companies) before the public ics release
It is not up to nvidia to update the device to ICS it is up to lg but they are busier with newer phones

It depends on the quality of the company, after a very long supported samsung Galaxy S, even when the market was a Galaxy S2.
The company realized the essence of Samsung Android devices, such as to make them attractive to buyers - do quality support. Other companies do not understand this, because the coolest gadget, without the support - a piece of plastic!

A good news for P990

bbs(plz delete it).k-touch.c(plz delete it)n/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=19601&extra=page%3D1
I had heard this news from the official forum of a chinese smartphone company which is Not a well-known brand named K-touch. The smartphone they produced has a accurate same Tegra2 chip with P990 (Tegra2 AP20H, actually same with P990). And their devlopers had given a good news to the MODERATOR of their official forum, and the moderator is the poster of the link above. The news said that they had begun coding with NVIDIA, and a beta ICS rom for their smartphone would be released at about 3 weeks later.
I think P990 could get the drivers after their beta rom released and the Hardware Acceleration of ICS for P990 could be solved. If so, LG provide ICS upgrade or not is not important.
Forgive me for my poor English. And I hope you guys could understand it.

It would really great if this is true But I couldn't find anything related to P990 on the link you given

The moderator announced that their smartphone K-touch W806 will get ics upgrade, and it has a same Tegra2 chip with P990. That's the only thing it related to P990. I post the link just want people know that the news is dependable.

So when we'll get that phones update binaries....

Good god! the k-touch w700 its really equal to the p990 :laugh::laugh::laugh:
now i got new hopes =D

it will probably have the same problem for porting as all other ics tegra2 phones: it doesn't include lg's modifications.

havent checked yet but ireally doubt it, unless its a completely same system as our phones, which is most unlikely

Great new!!!

It would be good to have a something like confirmation from a ours dev's eye

The link above shows the phone specs, as you can see, we have different camera still image resolution vide record is not 1080p, some differences in 3g. But you can see too that this is the phone that easily come closer to the optimus 2x (512mb ram , no fisical button, same screen resolution, etc...) and probably uses the same ap20h chipset cuz, it launched long time ago like to o2x

And since JB still uses kernel 3.0.xx (which has already been ported to our LG O2X), we will also see JB on our phone ...right?

Don't get any high hopes, it is very difficult that the SoC is exactly the same. The Lg 2x is more than a year and a half old, this phone you guys are talking about is recent just like the ZTE Mimosa is, those tegra2 chip have different coding inside.
Even though i have my fingers crossed (just for good luck).
As it was mentioned before, this thread should be on the "ICS updates out" thread........so we can keep on track of the news.

kernel has nothing to do with JB. Kernel versions have no influence on Android versions. Look at ICS, there are phones with it and they are running with 2.6 kernel. So don't worry about kernels on Jelly Bean.

I wouldn't get my hopes up. Unless it is exactly the same configuration i.e. star board, which is seriously doubt, it is of no use just like ZTE Mimosa / Grand.

the k-touch w700 is as old as o2x!! Great chances to be vantana board

I can't think of a nice way to say this, but WAKE UP, dun act like you guys are on LSD
LG O2x chip needs drivers of its own!!
We wield the first batch of nVidia dual-core processors and they were probably in beta when nVidia manufactured it!!
We have impaired chips and we need custom drivers for them!!

Where Have All The Developers Gone?

This pertains specifically to the recent LG release of ICS (with the NVIDIA accelerated hardware drivers) for the SU660 (Korean version of the Optimus 2X) and the lack of developer interest in porting it to the P990 and P999 versions of the same phone.

They'll be back when the kernel source code is released (don't worry, LG is legally obliged to release it due to the contract terms of using Android).
I doubt the devs can just pick apart the Korean .kdz file to extract binaries - they need the source code. And we know the source code WILL come now, it's just a matter of time.
Hang on man, I'm excited myself. Especially being in North America where we are unlikely to get any OTA update.

LOL, I think Stefan already announced that this would happen. Although the SU660 and the P990 have the same specs there are slight variations in the partitioning and so on that makes it impossible to just mix-and-match ROMs. Same for just about every phone with regional variations, it's to prevent people from easily debranding phones and removing carrier bloatware. It's nothing that our devs can't overcome... but they need source code first.

I think you should inform yourself a little more.before creating a thread calling for developers.
I don't know of a single dev who has a "lack of interest", most are quite excited. If it would be easily possible to port the SU660 ROM to the P99x one it would already have been done. It is NOT the "same" phone.
And keep in mind that this phone never had a lot of - how to phrase it - "real kick ass developers".
The best thing which could have happened to our phone was arcee, his skills are amazing. Without him the LG 2x custom ROM scene would be nowhere near the current state.

If you have been following the threads about the leak, you would know that they can't do anything at the moment because basically they still need the kernel sources to work (which we still don't have) and in consecuence you wouldn't have posted this (right?).
I'm a developer and I don't really like this kind of stuff. It feels like pressuring them to get working on something, remember they are doing this for fun / self training and for free - so please people let them be. If something new happens they will be the first ones to inform about it.

I'll leave that to you because you know that more than that have sold their Optimus 2X and G2X phones and moved on and others such as RC have "put it on the shelf" and, depending on LG releasing ICS with accessible NVIDIA hardware drivers and whether he thinks it is worthwhile spending his time on it instead of his current and future interests, he may or may not be counted among the developers who "moved on" (hopefully not).

Yes, JB alpha for the O2X was just released but ICS and JB are already available for other, older, phones with less worthy hardware. W're fortunate that, in spite of NVIDIA and LG causing development for the O2X to be somewhat masochistic, there are still some developers working on it. If LG releases a public version of ICS with a locked bootloader for the SU660/P990/P999, there will be even fewer developers. It is interesting to note the lack of developers commenting about my post. I think they understand where I am coming from.

It is interesting to note the lack of developers commenting about my post. I think they understand where I am coming from.

1. The opposite will happen when we get the official ICS release (which will most likely have the locked bootloader, yes). More devs will gain interest as there's finally something to do instead of waiting. The locked bootloader will be annoying but there will be ways around it.
2. The real devs usually don't read xda in general and not the general section in particular. No wondering why...
3. Start learning to develop your own stuff then the 2x will be exactly the way you want it to have. No offense, but this thread leads to nothing.
